After three years of isolation, URJ is celebrating our 150th anniversary this December with an electrifying gathering in Washington, DC. For one joyful weekend, we’ll celebrate our community, our values, and our purpose. Learn more and register today.
This past Yom Kippur, we affirmed that our commitment to making amends and pursuing restorative justice remains resolute. Watch this video from Rabbi Rick Jacobs, URJ President.
Power for Purpose is our opportunity to bring the full strength of our movement together to address the climate crisis and deliver a clean, healthy, and livable future for all communities, particularly those most impacted by climate pollution. Learn how you can join us to take action.
